Stepdad has one with nearly 200k on it (1999 V reg 2.5 V6 Elite Auto Estate), just had the autobox seals done and a full service and its still going strong.

Around town he gets about 22mpg but on a run to Scotland he got 35mpg witch was quite good for a V6.

His is quite nippy when you press the Sport button but it wont set your pants on fire.
